1- cheaper beer and food prices you need to give people a reason to want to stay eating and drinking at your hotel not run us away with expensive price.
2- We the guests at Shanti do not rent a dinner table nor rent from the restaurant we rent a room if a guest wants to eat something from outside it is the quests choice.
3- Shanti has 3 options in my opinion. 1:) make the beer and food prices cheaper so quests do not go other places to eat and drink. 2:) keep the prices the same but guests may drink or eat as they please. 3:) do nothing or change nothing and slowly your hotel will never be rented again.
Now on a side note other then the owner and nobody checking me in or available when I arrived. Other the these problems. I enjoyed my time at Shanti due to the staff they are extremely nice and friendly.
